Chapter 12 - Is it picnic or adventure ? ( 3 )

Shiro was walking in the forest while searching for some medicinal herbs. He only knew about a few herbs but his knowledge was still very huge given his status in the past life and the age of genetic revolution when he lived in.

When he was looking around carefully, he finally saw a herb he could knew.

It was the red trap herb. Its color was red and had countless small thorns on the petals. It looked like a red flower but it was not a flower at all. Just its appearance was similar to a flower. Normally it would grow in some area of extremely hot desert. He didn't know why it grew on this kind of land.

However, he was in the different world. So, he wouldn't waste his brain cells by thinking such a unsolvable thing.

Then, he thought about its properties.

' If my memories are still correct and don't change yet, I remember that it can control unwanted bleeding and reduce the amount of blood loss very greatly. It is a great medicinal herb. It was also one of the new breeds of herb which started the genetic revolutionary age in my past life. Moreover, some scientists even said that these kinds of plants were more like animals than plants.

However, they are not important now. The most important thing currently is to pluck this herb and grind it into powder. Let's search a few more herbs after plucking this one. I was quite fortunate to find this kind of very scarce herbs. '

After that, he continued to search for some herbs which can be used to treat or prevent some types of bacteria infection.

The more he walked, the more strange medicinal herbs that he had never seen before, he saw.

When he reached a certain big rock, he stopped because he saw a golden plant that looked like some carnivorous plants. Its color was golden and very magnificent but once someone approached this plant blindly, he would be doomed !

" In this forest, there is even this kind of herb. Its level can be compared to the previous red herb. Moreover this golden anti-life herb can be found only on the extremely high mountains. What's wrong with this forest ! " he was surprised and whispered to himself.

However, this antibiotic herb was very effective towards serious wounds.

" When they are alive, they consume the life force of their preys and, when they die, they will eat every negative effect and bacteria of their host. It can even be called a mysterious medicine which is out of modern scientists' scope. " he said and went forward to pluck this herb. Plucking the anti-life plant might not be as easy as previous red trap herb for some people but for him who knew the method, it was as easy as eating breakfast.

After he plucked these two kinds of herb, he concluded that they would be enough to cure that brown dog. He brought the herbs onto a big square rock and began to grind them into powder.

Then, he went hurriedly to the lake. If not, the dog would be dead by the time he arrived. He put water from the lake and powder into his water bottle.

' I think it is already enough. They are very precious and effective herbs. Even if I don't have any tool, I have heard that even their powder is very effective. It may be wasteful but I don't have other choice too ' he thought while putting the bottle into his bag.

He returned to the place where the dog was and applied the water mixed with powder onto its wounds.

But even after waiting for one hour, the bleeding from the wounds had not yet stopped.

' It was really strange. Normally, the bleeding should stop right now ' he wondered why its wounds were still bleeding and also surprised at the amount of blood it had.

" Is it a mutated dog ? " he said and decided to wait a little longer.

After a while, the dog opened its eyes dazedly.

_________X_________

I opened my eyes and tried to turn around my head to observe my surroundings but I couldn't do it because my neck and body was hurt everytime I tried to move.

That's why I looked at the human's face in front of me. At first, I was alert to him because I was full of wounds and couldn't move but I am not afraid at all. Even if I couldn't move, I am still very powerful. If the human looking at me did something he shouldn't do, I would kill him like an ant !

But in the next moment, I noticed that he was curing me with some unknown mortal medicine and rubbing my fur to console me. I scoffed his idiotic thought because there was no way this mortal medicine would cure my wounds.

However, I didn't resist his rubbing and cure since I didn't feel any malicious ambition from him. Anyway, I was also feeling quite good. It has been a long time since someone rubbed my fur. It would be more correct that no one had the courage to rub my fur.

I looked at the human who was giving me medical treatment. His face was indifferent but seemed kind and amiable.

Next moment, I relieved my tension and relaxed my body to recover my law energy and strength. By any means, this human wouldn't be able to kill me.

Then, I thought about my experiences before I lost my consciousness.

( POV )

Five days ago, I came into this forest because of a mission. This forest was full of many ferocious beasts. My mission was to discipline the little beasts in this forest because I didn't have any quantifications to discipline old beasts. In this forest, there were many beasts who were in the same realm as me. Moreover, most of them were a little bit stronger than me.

A little bit means a minor realm !

I was a beast king. Normally speaking, I was in third realm but I didn't dare to be arrogant here. There was even a beast Saint in the deepest part of this forest. Saints are almost paramount powerhouses in this world.

But it was not problem for me. If I lived according to his rules, senior beast Saint wouldn't mind me.

The real problem started three days after I reached this forest. In his fourth day, a group of people with black clothes arrived at the forest.

At first, I thought that they would be ordinary people. If so, they would definitely die because they had to rely on their mortal bodies but I didn't have any plan to interfere their actions. Even if there would be some life-threatening dangers for them, I didn't also have an ability to save them but I would help them if the ones who threatened their lives are little beasts. If not, I would just dig some holes and wait for them. They were his thoughts at that time.

But as time passed, I noticed that they were planning for something. They even had an ability to avoid all beasts along their way.

That's why I decided to observe them carefully while hiding from them. Anyway, I had the duty to protect the little beasts.

After I observed them carefully, I saw that they were laying the sound-proofing law formation in the forest. Immediately, I was in the state of alert because I understood they were not ordinary by any means.

The only cultivators who I couldn't detect their auras at all were the beings who were super stronger than me and the people who belonged to Supreme mortal temple. It didn't matter whether they were stronger than me or they are from mortal temple because every cultivator from mortal temple couldn't be underestimated by any means.

I would only observe first. If there were some dangers, I would immediately report the news to headquarters but, at that time, I didn't think about asking for help or reinforcements.

There were many strong beasts and even a beast Saint in this forest. I didn't believe that they would be senior disciples of mortal temple.

However, I didn't have to wait for too long. In that night, that group of people began their plan. The first part of their plan was to observe and check the bloodthirsty and ferocious beasts in this forest and the second part was ~

The second part was too scary for me. The people with black clothes began to hit every bloodthirsty beast that had the same realms as mine until they became cripples. The beasts they beat were even more than one hundred.

I was extremely frightened and tried to flee away but I was too late and couldn't be away from the forest anymore. So, I only hid in the place I thought it would be safe for me if I didn't move and make a sound but, I could still see their actions very clearly. They were very confident of their strength too because they didn't even try to hide their actions from others to see. To beat the shit out of the third realm beats, it was very easy for them. Every single person among them can beat many beast kings as easily as peeing against a fence.

While I was silently watching the frightening scenes in front of me without any movement, the moon was already on my head.

' Midnight has come ! ' I thought.
